Tom

Nicely done! Can't wait to see it.

Even sooner than I expected.

Congrats.

Damn you fuggers buying bikes and shit. I hate you all.

Tom

Tom

Funwheels out in Medford

You could all help the economy more and buy me a bike. :D :D :D

WOO HOOO!! Congrats!

Excellent :dthumb:

sweet ride

I am still happy with my old tractor.:?:

Cool:rockwoot:

Congratz!

Red & silver. :dribble:

You willing to work for it?

Congrats Paul!

Good job halfbreed!!!!

No. I am an American. Things should just be given to me without having earned it. Duh. *smacking my gum, twirling my hair, listening to my iPod while texting*

I'll give ya something.

You're an American woman, which means if you want free vehicles you gotta stretch that jaw out a little. And I don't mean by smacking gum and gossiping with your friends.

Pssst...I'll give you a hint. It rhymes with Snow Mob.

:rofl:

Your new shiny bike??? :D

It IS something you can ride...

congrats!!!!!

WTF!

between you & Tommy, am i the only guy on the island NOT buying a new bike?

yes

Congrats, post pics when you can.

:nopicsbs:

Congrats though. Guess you really got the OK from the wife..

So you keeping the 11 or selling it?

Never would have happened if it weren't for CasterTroy (and also comments from you guys).

thanks to Castertroy and those offering to hide the bike for a few months

I'd like to keep it.
I'm going to transfer the insurance and plates over to the new one (Once I get all the info) so at the very least the 11' is being taken off the road.

I'm going to put the word out that it is "on the market" but I'm not going to try too hard at least for now.

It's served me well for several years but obviously it's not exactly on everyone's wishlist.

$1750 in taxes and fee's.........WOW

future congrats

Now that's a friend! :yes:

HAHAHAHA now THAT is a friend :lol:

Hell CasterTroy just wanted to piss on that bike for the few months he had it. Gives him warm fuzzies inside

So... where are the pictures?!?!?!?!

Stimulate this:gofurslf:


Grats, Paul!

I got nothin :lol:

I went there during my lunch hour (working from home that day), sat on the sole black one they had there...said "that fits" and told them I want one in red\silver. Guy said they'd order it and it could possibly be there Friday. Left a $500 deposit and I guess we'll see what happens.

Nice, bet the anticipation is killing you esp since the weather is still decent up here.

I think I will be getting mine tuesday, will be going to see the ins guy today to add the bike to my policy and should be set from there.

Tom

Any idea what time you'll be out here?

Wasn't before...now its starting to build.
May call up tomorrow asking if its in yet.

I am figuring between 12 and 3. dont want ot stay too late and loose daylight on the way home but if the temps stay like this it wont be too bad.

Tom

Dude shit. I just realized I'm off Tuesday. It's election day, FUCK YEAH GOV'T WORK! I'm coming out.

Coolness, maybe I will try tpo get there a little earlier and we can grab some lunch and ride around a bit before I break for home.

Tom

SHHHHHHHH


congrats Paul!

Absolutely.

Well it looks like the sales guy was making promises he couldn't keep. Maybe you should not waste people's time by taking deposits on a bike you do not have.

Aww shit that doesnt sound good, what happened?

Tom

He got all BLENDED up in that bitch!

Guy said that no other dealers were willing to trade for em so he could get any.
He originally made it seem like they had it in inventory. He said he would keep trying to find one (now one in any color) but it looks like he has done nothing but waste my time. Had he been on the up and up, I would have used my day off to go to dealerships that actually had them in inventory.

I am not amused

Sorry to hear, thats fucking frustrating. Whats the plan now? I would pressure him to keep looking and then tell him no thanx when he gets one to the dealership, just to return the favor and waste his time too.

Tom

FWIW I know for a fact that the local dealer had at least two '08/'09 Cbr1000s in stock as of 3 weeks ago...

You suck. Both you and marko!

you can come meet us too :)

Tom

Yeah... well... easier said than done... just killed my last bit of vacay over the past week or so...

I will write you a doctors note ;)

YES! Good call.

Anything new Paul?

Received a message from the place about how they are still looking.
I'll probably call them up later today.
As soon as I hear the words "might","may","maybe" I'm just going to ask them to refund my deposit. I also doubt they will get any of my business for a very long time.

Had I not walked into the place and gone on to the shops I had planned to go to, I would have had the bike and for less.
Now it looks like all the local spots are either sold out or over priced.

That just blows!


If you want me too...and if it'd make you feel better, I could take a big ole country $h!t in a box and mail it to them C/O a very unsatisfied customer.

Bummer dude, sorry to hear. Shady dealers suk.

sunbisch

They apparently hunted one down.

well post pics when you get it

Get a red & black striped, it looks better than the red & silver IMO

Looks like they found a yellow\black one.

I think the Red\Silver one looks better but thats my preference.

Nice score... they are giving those things away here too... I know a couple people who have picked them up. That's a lot of bike for the money :cheers:

The only thing that concerns me is the rep they've developed for oil consumption\ smokin like a two stroke.

:rockwoot:

Congrats.

congrats!!!

Did you ever go back and ride the XB?

:nopic:

Sweet! Can it wheelie?!

going Sun. morn.

nice traps

http://twowheelfix.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1257543535

that really is looking good!

Awesome. Let me know what you think.

Can I borrow it for that trackday at NJMP!?

Didn't know you were a Steelers fan.

Is it wrong that I like the 11 better?:?:

Congrats! Welcome to the Honda family

Why are they practically giving those bikes away now? thought it was stange honda was but not the other manufacturers.

Tom

We have a large dealer in Charlotte that have/had zx10s and R1s priced similar

Hmm, maybe I can sell some stock and get.... wait nevermind I have pushed my luck far enough :lol:

Tom

lol, yeah.
you'll end up sleeping in the garage with all the bikes.

You got stones, guy.

09+ R1s? Wonder what would shipping run..

I figure theres so many bikes in the garage she wont notice :lol:

Tom

These were 08s

Way to go Paul! :rickroll:

Thats a solid strategy.

:lol
